If you just want to "response.write" the entire file, there is also
Response.WriteFile(filename);

protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
string file = Server.MapPath("file.xml");
using (System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(file,
System.Text.Encoding.Default,false))
{
writer.Write(sr.ReadToEnd());
}
}
